RURAL SOCIAL CENTERS.
The greater iufluence of the rural
schools upon the surrounding communities,
homes and industry is to be
given a practical test in Kansas this
fall and coming winter as the result
of the intention expressed by more
than S00 rural school teachers to
initiate social center activity in connection
with their school work during
the approaching school year. In fourteen
counties of the state, practically
every school house is to be a community
center.
About the rural school, there natur- ,
ally revolves most that makes for the
community spirit in the country and
small villages. Properly set to work
for the uplift and upbuilding of the
community, this school has a far reaching
influence and power for rural
welfare. To exert this influence, however,
the rural school must be in
charge of a teacher willing to and *
capable of directing social center j
activities from the forum W the public
school.
Kansas is undertaking to inspire '
its rural teachers to romote social J
center work. It is trying to train
them, which is even more important.
What Kansas is doing, other states ,
should do and they may do it in the
same manner. Make the rural school
a social center with a teacher willing
and caDable of directing community .
movement for the general good. 1
Here's 'how they are doing it in j
Kansas: a speaker from the rural service
department of the state agricul- ^
tural -college expension division atthe
various county teachers' .
institututes, at each one of which he '
presents practical definite methods
for making rural schools community
centers. Among things he proposes
are an open forum in which subjects
of interest to farmers may be discussed,
traveling libraries, art collection
for school room wallsand such things.
The result of these lectures before
the teachers' institutes has been unusual.
Fourteen institutes have been
visited and hundreds of teachers are
announcing that they will adopt the
plan outlined by the speaker.
This is the season of the teachers' (
institute in this state. Why not have
a speaker on hand to promote rural
social centers here?

The Newberry Herald and News ,
the strongest supporter In '.he S?t;?:a of ,
Governor Hleaso. speaks of l)r. Mc!n- ,
. tosh as follows: "We have known
Dr. Mcintosh for many years and we j
know him to he an honorable and an
upright citizen and one who speaks
ho truth and in this ease there could
bp no motive for speaking anything |
else. He is not in politics and we
know him well enough to believe that j
he would not make a false statement |<
to help or hurt any one. He is not h
that type of man." j;
On His Way. | ^
"Why doesn't that dachshund come
when I call him? The idea of sulk- !
lng on me." ' He's coming as fast as
he can," said the man's wife. "He's
got his front legs started."?Washington

When Love Cools. '
Many an engagement has been ' j
broken off through a misunderstanding ,
?each thinking the other had money. | 1
What Does W. F. Stevenson
Stand For?
The slip of a decimal point in last
veek's advertisement made the same
state that South Carolina's share of
Ifce money wasted in rivers, creeks
and harbors was $48,000,000.00 when
it should have been $4,800,000.00, and
the statement should be so modified.
In his speeches foe stands for
cutting off waste like this, and for
spending the money on Post Roads
under wise supervision and skillfull
construction. He stands against taxng
the people as a whole for the benefit
of the few rich shipowners who use
the Panama Canal, and would not
have so voted if he had been in congress?and
there he differs ^rom his
opponent who voted against President
Wilson's policy and tried to fasten
the burden of the maintenance
of the canal on all the people while
the few rich ship owners engaged
in the coastwise trade used it free.
His speeches are certainly approved
by those who hear them.
The Chester Semi-Weekly News
says of his speech in Chester July
25th:
" This left the floor entirely to the
Oberaw candidate, W. F. Stevenson,
vho was given a tremendous ovation.
The crowd certainly looked like it
was for him as he was followed closely
throughout his speech, which was
over an hour, and was vociferously
applauded."
And the same paper said editorially
>n July 28th:
"W. F. Stevenson, candidate for Congress
from this District, made an imjressive
speech in the Court House
ast Saturday. Mr. Stevenson is a man
of unusual ability and has had a
great deal of legislative experience
and the* voters of the fifth distri.t
have the opportunity to elect a man
to represent them in Congress wfto
is altogether fearless when it comes
to doing and working for those things
hat makes for the best interests of
he people generally. Mr. Stevenson,
f elected, will represent his district
impartially with honor to 'himself
md satisfaction to his constituents,
le is considered one of the strong;st
laweyers in the State and his
iroad legal training more thoroughly
;quips him to confront the great publia
uestlons that come up in the
National Congress.
